Campanaro: "I kind of do it all. I can run north and south really well, but am also good in the slot position and can create mismatches for the defense. I make plays and can turn the game around with one play.
"I still want to be a better cornerback and work on my defense, especially my footwork. I haven't played much defense in high school, so I think a lot of that will come with experience. On offense, I want to work on running between tackles better."
Campanaro says he'll most likely play offense in college. "A lot of coaches are telling me that I'm the next Wes Welker and they see me playing the inside slot position."
